Line Bot

Line Bot - Smarter Than Your Average Cart

Concept Idea

"What we are gonna do is not the Normal thing. Just like How we're gonna home, We have some pathway to go. We have a thing on Top of our head to do that. Like wise we are gonna put that thing to understand the bot to move to the area, where should go. It like putting an RFID Reader there by If we put the tag then It will capture data and then it will move from that area where we have address in each trace".
